Police report: barking-dog citations warned, campers left park clean
Summary
Officer Small told the Bloomington Village Board about three barking-dog complaints with an owner warned to reduce dogs to five by Sept. 1, 2025 to avoid citations; he also reported campers after a softball tournament left the park clean and ongoing junk-cleanup enforcement with Sept. 1 compliance deadlines.
Officer Small presented the police report, describing three complaints about barking dogs on 4th Street since the last meeting. He said the resident was informed a citation could be issued and given a deadline of September 1, 2025, to reduce the number of dogs to five; failure to comply could result in daily citations or an administrative warrant to seize and rehome animals at the owner's expense. Officer Small reported the resident was cooperative and that a formal complaint form was provided but not returned.
Officer Small also reported that a group from Iowa who camped at the Community Park after the softball tournament left the area clean; because of intoxication levels they were not asked to leave that night but were advised to apply for a Special Use Permit in the future. He noted continuing follow-up on multiple junk-cleanup violations, with most properties given a compliance deadline of September 1, 2025.
